NAME

UniEvent::Socks - Socks support for UniEvent's tcp handles.

DESCRIPTION

UniEvent::Socks makes it possible to connect UniEvent's tcp handle via socks proxy server.

UniEvent::Socks is a stream filter, it doesn't change API of tcp handle. Just use it as you would without socks proxy.

SYNOPSIS

    use UniEvent::Socks;
    
    my $tcp = UniEvent::Tcp->new;
    UniEvent::Socks::use_socks($tcp, $proxy_host, $proxy_port);
    
    $tcp->connect($host, $port); # connect to destination via proxy
    $tcp->connect_callback(sub {
        # called when connect to destination via proxy is established
    });
    ... # use as arbitrary connection
    
    # via object method
    $tcp->use_socks("socks5://myproxy.com:1111");

FUNCTIONS

use_socks($tcp_handle, $proxy_host, $proxy_port, [$login], [$password], [$socks_resolve])

Enables socks proxy for tcp handle.

$proxy_host and $proxy_port is the location of socks 5 proxy. Optional login and password can be defined to authorize on socks proxy.

If $socks_resolve is true and host supplied to tcp handle's connect() method is a domain name, then name resolution will be made on socks proxy server's side.

use_socks($tcp_handle, $uri)

Gets host, port, login and password from an URI and calls the above version of use_socks() with these params and socks_resolve = true.

URI must be a string or an object of class URI::XS. It must have "socks5" scheme ("sock5://user:pass@host:port/").

METHODS

For convenience, UniEvent::Socks adds use_socks() method to UniEvent::Tcp package. Its synopsis is the same as for functions described above except for the first argument $tcp_handle which should not be passed.
